The Kaimai Mamaku Forest is off State Highway 29. it has a mixture of Maori trails and historic mining and logging tracks cross the Kaimai range. The park covers 45,000 hectares between Waikato and Bay Of Plenty. The Kaimai Mamaku Forest also has accommodation, there are huts, shelters and there are picnic areas to eat in. Kaimai Mamaku Forest also includes-

Mount Te Aroha is the highest point in the Kaimai Mamaku Forest Park. I know that this place is a superb place to visit.
